High blood pressure despite being fit
Hello, I am 27 & female, fit (I run 5km several times per week, which I have done for 17 years), vegetarian (for 16 years, rarely pescetarian), my BMI is 19.6, I also climb and do weights several times per week so I have built up some muscle. I don't have a car and walk everywhere. Yet on 3 separate occasions my blood pressure at the doctor has been 150/90 and recently 130/90. This has spanned a full year and I have not consistently been stressed in that year. What could cause this?
